- On Saturday, 4/23, in the sanctuary, the 6:30 p.m. showing of the documentary film “Youth v. Gov” (with popcorn supplied by our youth), and right after the movie, a follow-on discussion with Tole
 do’s Terry Lodge, an attorney who is very actively involved in a wide range of legal cases related to environmental issues. Cookies and snacks will be provided by the Green Team.
- On Sunday, 4/24, at 9 a.m. in the chapel and available on-line, we will welcome Mike Ferner, former Toledo City council member, mayoral candidate, author and activist. He leads a discussion that will include the Lake Erie Bill of Rights, Maumee River runoff impacts, effects of H2Ohio, and more.
- Following the 10 a.m. worship service, including a scavenger hunt, making of stepping stones to be used in our native plantings around church, and in planting seeds for “pizza” gardens.
The Green Team invites everyone to join us as we celebrate care for God’s creation this weekend!

If you picture the rest of your life with places to see, things to do, and friends and family to spend time with, you probably picture health and wellness to go with it. That's where Body Restore classes come in. Pam Christensen is offering 3 classes (9:30 on April 27, May 11 and May 25) in our chapel with health education and wellness movements. Every and any body can come for simple but thorough movements, many from a chair, and smart reminders how to care for our bodies. Questions or to sign up, just email (no text, please) pamjchristensen@gmail.com. It will be FUN!
